The mobile Boolean model: an overview and further results

This paper offers an overview of the mobile Boolean stochastic geometric model which is a time-dependent version of the ordinary Boolean model in a Euclidean space of dimension $d$. The main question asked is that of obtaining the law of the detection time of a fixed set. We give various ways of thinking about this which result into some general formulas. The formulas are solvable in some special cases, such the inertial and Brownian mobile Boolean models. In the latter case, we obtain some expressions for the distribution of the detection time of a ball, when the dimension $d$ is odd and asymptotics when $d$ is even. Finally, we pose some questions for future research.
